Create and configure the brokers that you want on the operating system of your choice.
For more information about user ID authorization and creation, refer to Planning for security.
To set up a default configuration, or an environment for application development on Linux on x86 or Windows, see Configuring brokers for development environments. If you are creating brokers for test and production environments, use the tasks included in this section.
When you have created your physical components, you can administer your test and production environments either by using the IBM Integration Explorer, or programmatically by using the IBM Integration API (the CMP).
This collection of tasks uses specific resource names and user IDs. These names are examples only; you can use your own names. Follow existing naming conventions for WebSphere® MQ and other resources.
Next: Continue your broker configuration tasks in the IBM Integration Explorer. For day to day administration of your brokers and associated resources, see Administering brokers and broker resources.
